Jews of modern Britain
1 total work
In this book, Stephen Brook looks not only at the tensions within religious Jewry but at the role Jews play in all aspects of modern British life. He explores such matters as the responses of British Jewry to recent events in Israel, and tries to establish the extent to which anti-Semitism is still a factor in British Society. By speaking to hundreds of Jews from all parts of the country, ranging from hard-line Orthodox rabbis to the most assimilated and atheistic members of the community, Brook aims to present a portrait of this group of people.
